    There might be some books of your interest in this hexbear bulletin: https://bulletins.hexbear.net/posts/readinglist/

    These books focus on general history(citing some because the list is long):

    • Aid to Africa: Redeemer or Coloniser? by Samir Amin et al (2009).
    • Tomorrow’s Battlefield : U.S. Proxy Wars and Secret Ops in Africa by Nick Turse (2015).
    • How Africa Developed Europe by Nkwazi Nkuzi Mhango (2018).
    • Extracting Profit: Imperialism, Neoliberalism and the New Scramble for Africa by Lee Wengraf (2018).
    • White Malice: The CIA and the Neocolonisation of Africa by Susan Williams (2021).
    • Economic and Monetary Sovereignty in 21st Century Africa by Maha Ben Gadha (2022).

    These books focus on left-wing movements:

    • Henry Sylvester Williams and the Origins of the Pan-African Movement, 1869-1911 by Hollis Lynch (1976).
    • Fevers, Feuds, and Diamonds: Ebola and the Ravages of History by Paul Farmer (2020).
